GIRLS BASKETBALL: Marlboro clinches MHAL Division II

MARLBORO, N.Y. -- A day after its big overtime win over Red Hook, Marlboro High's girls clinched the Division II title in Mid-Hudson Athletic League basketball Wednesday night with a 53-26 triumph over Rondout Valley.

Nicole DeSantis and Angelica DeSantis scored 12 and 10 points, respectively, to lead the Dukes, who will play Wallkill in the MHAL semifinals 5 p.m. Tuesday at Ulster County Community College.

Marlboro, which finished 7-3 in the league, tied Red Hook for first place with Tuesday's 55-51 OT triumph and needed Wednesday's victory to avoid a playoff for the division.

At Millbrook, Onteora got ready for the MHAL semis by pulling out a tough overtime win over the Blazers.

Adrianna DeCicco had a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds, Kaitlyn King had 13 points, seven rebounds and three blocked shots and Julia Occhi added nine points and six steals to lead the Indians, who finished 9-1 in the league.
